WHO is the one which gives directives on how to manage all diseases, those scientific researche results must be reviewed and accepted by WHO first, and need some inputs before they can be allowed to be used in clinical applications, there are very many things which need to be considered before making use of those research results. In nutshell those research findings are more academic than clinical.And which number is more important between the upper and the lower reading.. i hear in the 70s, 80s and part of 90s.. the lower reading was taken as more important, and thts where all clinical decisions were made.
but in the recent scientific research, it revealed tht the upper reading, ie. systolic is more important and thts where all clinical and pharmaceutical decision should be based on... it tht true.!?[emoji848]
then why would our african nurses and doctors, and especially east african! still look on the lower reading more, yet scientific findings says others tht the upper reading is the predictor of all cardiovascular events.. eg. stroke, heartattack, kidney and liver failures etc[emoji848]
